Then he told all of them, “If anyone wants to come with me, he must deny himself, pick up his cross every day, and follow me continuously, because whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. Luke 9:23,24 (International Standard Version)
Come with me my friend. I call you friend because my secrets are with you. Come with me; Reason with me; Abide in me. Do not lean on your understanding alone. Let our friendship be real…
Deny yourself. Put away selfishness – Thinking about your gains alone And never counting my own losses. Let my heart beat in yours – That’s how true friends converse….
Pick up your cross everyday… I agree it is hard…very hard… I know that feeling of powerlessness, But I will not send you where I have not equipped you to go… Your cross, dear friend, pick it up. I picked up mine at a time when it was the last thing I wanted to do… My ministry was at its peak! Oh my life was only beginning… But my cross…. Today, it is my glory. So take up yours, Child; I’m here to make it light….
Follow me continuously… Come today Come again tomorrow Come again the day after that And the day after…. And the day after….
Life isn’t life if it is outside the Father’s life. Find your life my friend By losing it in Me…. Your Saviour.
– Sista Mercie
